Irish Screenings Summer 2014

Maggie Gyllenhaal, Michael Fassbender and Domhnall Gleeson in FRANK

In the summer of 2014 our main festival hub, Riverside Studios, sadly closed its doors to the public. To celebrate their three year collaboration with us, Riverside Cinema Programmer and long-time supporter of Irish Film London Shira MacLeod, orchestrated 3 Irish Film double bills as a final send off! The Riverside Studios site is now under redevelopment. Over the next two years, their Hammersmith site will be transformed into a larger building, which will include 3 studios, a cinema, a screening room, a rehearsal area and a public entertainment area.

The chosen films included the 2014 summer's three biggest Irish releases: John Michael McDonnagh's 'Calvary', Lenny Abrahamson's 'FRANK', and John Butler's 'The Stag'
